A Saturday Picnic

With all the cold and snow here in Missouri this first week of January, I I decided to go warm.
I've been rearranging all my craft stuff in my room and found a folder of pictures I had printed to scrap and never got to.   So these two were perfect to go with the Dec. 15th sketch at  "MY CREATIVE SKETCHES"   I think these were taken early spring last year, still cool but nice enough for a Saturday picnic in the park for my grandkids.    But once I had the sketch I wanted to use I started looking for papers to go with my pictures.    I had other challenges laying out on my desk and I saw the one for  "THROUGH THE EYES OF ROCHELLE SPEARS"    I loved the colors in the photo inspiration and I knew exactly what papers to use and they would go with the colors in the pictures too.

I used the 'Bella Blvd'  Illustrated Faith collection for this layout, I thought the colors were perfect for my pictures and the beginning of Spring.    I inked all the edges in black and also matted my two
pictures with black card stock.  Added some, white, blue, pink, green and blue butterflies to go with the colors and my layout was complete.

Here is the sketch,  you still have till the 14th of January to enter at "MY CREATIVE SKETHCES".

And here is the Photo Inspiration for "THROUGH THE EYES OF ROCHELLE SPEARS"
You have until Jan 29th at 11:50 PST to enter.
